hi againgot a few requests on how to do this, so here it goes. won't really explain the code in detail, as i don't feel like doing that. just google "typewriter effect" or whatever, if you really want to know.

Step 1create your dynamic text box and give it the instance name of "text_txt" (without the quotes, obviously)

Spoiler:

Step 2create the graphic for your textbox. i'm lazy so i'll just use a black rectangle here, but you can be as fancy as you want. you can also just grab one from a game or something

Spoiler:

Step 3take both the text and the graphic and put those in a movieclip. then give it the instance name of "textHolder". the reason i'm doing this is so that i can just drag this symbol from the library, whenever i need to use it, instead of copy-pasting these everytime. that and if i use the automated parallax code on my animation, i can apply it to this as well (won't cover how to do it here though) (yeah i'm really lazy)

Spoiler:

Step 4then copy and paste this code on the frame you want to use this (the little animation i did was for clarity - so you could see it looping and whatnot):

the parallax code is really easy (and kind of weird with zooms, but it will do because no one has a better engine, except for lange but ITS LANGE)basically, you just give your vcam the instance name of vcam, then click on the bg movieclip that you want to apply the parallax and write this (AS2)
